Grouse Lake

Summit County - Eagle County - Clear Creek County

Grouse Lake is located 4.7 miles from the Grouse Creek Trailhead in the Holy Cross Wilderness. It lies in a wide, level basin ringed by thick timber and marshy willow below Grouse Mountain (12,726’). The Grouse Lake Trail closely follows Grouse Creek through grassy aspen groves into thick coniferous forests up to the lake. The trail is highlighted by abundant flowers and good fishing.
